Andrew Carnegie was born on November 25, 1835, in Dunfermline, Scotland, in a poor family. His father, a handloom weaver, struggled to support the family, leading them to immigrate to the United States in 1848 for better opportunities. Settling in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, Carnegie started working at a young age in various jobs, including as a bobbin boy in a cotton factory, which instilled in him a strong work ethic and ambition. These early experiences laid the foundation for his later success in the steel industry and philanthropy.
